About the Showcase
Attendees will have the opportunity to attend the Annual Energy and the Environment Showcase.  The Showcase affords attendees, exhibitors, and sponsors alike the opportunity to engage a wide variety of individuals and groups, including representatives of businesses and organizations, public officials, members and future members of the Independent Power Producers of New York, Inc. 

The Showcase provides an excellent way to market your products and services, while maximizing your exposure to attendees. Over 250 people attend this event each year, and with more than 15 exhibitors on display; the opportunities clearly increase your corporate exposure!  Interested in exhibiting?

About the Conference
The spring conference regularly attracts well over 100 energy industry executives, policy makers and members of the financial and legal communities. The New York Energy Highway Blueprint and other energy priorities have brought about many action items that will have an impact on the way business is done in New York. 

This year's conference will focus on the various upcoming public policy requirements for the energy industry and how to make sense of these sometimes conflicting proposals while maintaining a robust and reliable electric power supply. In addition, the conference will feature a panel discussion, moderated by Yancey Roy of Newsday that will review the possible options for the future of LIPA in response to the Moreland Commission's recommendation that the public power authority be abolished.
